LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD FINALISTA transgender reporter's "powerful, profoundly moving" narrative tour through the surprisingly vibrant queer communities sprouting up in red states (New York Times Book Review), offering a vision of a stronger, more humane America.
Ten years ago, Samantha Allen was a suit-and-tie-wearing Mormon missionary. Now she's a GLAAD Award-winning journalist happily married to another woman. A lot in her life has changed, but what hasn't changed is her deep love of Red State America, and of queer people who stay in so-called "flyover country" rather than moving to the liberal coasts. In Real Queer America, Allen takes us on a cross-country road-trip stretching all the way from Provo, Utah to the Rio Grande Valley to the Bible Belt to the Deep South. Her motto for the trip: "Something gay every day." Making pit stops at drag shows, political rallies, and hubs of queer life across the heartland, she introduces us to scores of extraordinary LGBT people working for change, from the first openly transgender mayor in Texas history to the manager of the only queer night club in Bloomington, Indiana, and many more. Capturing profound cultural shifts underway in unexpected places and revealing a national network of chosen family fighting for a better world, Real Queer America is a treasure trove of uplifting stories and a much-needed source of hope and inspiration in these divided times.

Super comfortable
Color: Green Bamboo(2300gsm), Size: Queen
this mattress topper completely saved my bed. It is super thick and soft, but still gives enough support so you don’t feel totally stuck. The cooling cover actually works pretty well and doesn't trap heat like other memory foam I’ve tried in the past. It was also really easy to put on and the deep pockets keep it from sliding around at night. Very happy with it!

Mattress Topper
Color: Green Bamboo(2300gsm), Size: Queen
So far I haven’t really got to get a feel of it. I will say it came smelling very strongly. I’ve had it now for 3 days & it still has a smell. I let it sit out for 24 hours, with the window opened but it still has an odd scent & once I put it on my bed it’s still smelling strong. It’s kind of hard to focus on my comfort when the smell is very odd & foul but aside from that. The reviews are on point in regards to its softness.
